A squirrel is in front of Wettey's gang, out on a rope halter. It is the very one they captured from the Woodland Sweepers as a hostage. The squirrel is an older beast and has quickly learned not to speak when Wettey is this nervous. He grunts and continues plodding along the much-frequented and quite dusty path. Suddenly he sees something glinting in the bushes ahead. He grins knowingly, but does not inform Wettey of the blade. Suddenly a swirling-cloaked beast leaps into the path in front of the gang. Six beasts leap in behind them, and five on either ditch. "Darr's no movin' about on arr land, ferrat. Stan' an' deliver!"
